I had a A6 with air suspension. The car lasted 11 years with zero suspension issues. I now have a Q7 with air suspension for a little over a year, and have had zero issues.

Wow, that's pretty bold. I'm not a fan of what looks like a huge plastic border around the grill. I'm also not quite sure why they needed the body colored appendage cutting into the side of the grill.

From what I understand, all the German car companies cheated to one degree or another because it's close to impossible to make diesel compliant with all NOx regulations, particularly the ones in the...

I hope they tone down that grill on the X7. It seems to go above the headlights quite a bit, which makes it look strange. Also, Car and Driver claims the X7 is about 200 inches long, which isn't...

Awesome, an ink blue Q7 in the video! I just noticed how deep the blue is on mine in the sunlight. Unfortunately, it shows every single scuff that comes with age.

There was some mention in the other thread about a change Google is making that is contributing to this issue. I can totally see Google messing with the car companies and make things more and more of...

I have encountered the opposite trend for service visits. I have had 2 audis and 1 jaguar in NYC. Dealers here always take air out of my tires, 30 psi seems to be extremely popular. On my old A6,...

That Q7 is moving about 1/5 the speed of what I normally see in a U.S. parking garage. The traffic sign recognition on the car is a complete fail (who at Audi decided stop signs aren't important),...

I agree, there is a lot of green in Galaxy "Blue" but it's not pure green like grass. I think when people see the color choices, and Audi offers only one blue, they presume it's going to be a pure...

I saw a Galaxy Blue Q7 while driving to a place in NJ from NY. My wife said she never saw a hunter green Q7 before, as we passed it. For what it's worth, it was not a particularly sunny day. I could...

Carplay sometimes gets locked up for me. Several times when I've had Spotify playing via Carplay, switch to something else in the MMI such as NAV, and then go back to Carplay, the MMI doesn't open...

That looks very brown in the picture. I thought the prior grey had a slight brown tint it in also, but this new grey takes the brown to a whole new level. I'm not sure why Audi doesn't just make a...

Thanks everyone. I guess I'll just leave the A/C running in winter.

A/C During Winter

I've noticed that because I never touch that button on my console, I've been running all winter with the A/C "on". I'm curious if people intentionally leave the A/C switch "on" during the winter...

I don't recall if I used FLAC or WMA lossless, but lossless files do play via SD card on my Q7 with Bose.

I agree. IMO, it's strange for a car manufacturer to put out this bold blue/green combination and not offer a standard dark blue.

The tire monitoring system works by analyzing wheel speed. It is based on change, so if you set it when the pressure was high, the tires can set off the alarm even if the tires still are within the...

Should have no impact on repairs as there will be no shortage of paint as Audi will have plenty. Shouldn't affect resale either because it's a fairly normal looking color. The replacement blue is a...

Wow, I must be lame in thinking that dynamic turn signals or changes to the headlights aren't that big of a deal. Clicking on the "fog" lights resolves the lack of side coverage that I sometimes get...

I would note that the drivers side is supposed to be lower than the passenger side to avoid blinding oncoming traffic, so be careful on how much you raise it.

Car Play is marginal. I use it for Spotify, and that's about it because the Car Play interface is basically a ton of icons you have to select versus the Audi interface which is nested menus, so they...

From what I have seen, Matrix LEDs aren't a panacea and basically are high beams that adjust to avoid dazzling other drivers. They carve out a dimmer spot in the light pattern for cars in front of...
